I am behind on the live - but I just wanted to comment and say THANK YOU for donating one of your books and a leotard to an American Red Cross fundraiser a while back - I was the recipient and was SO greatful! Representing the Midwest here in South Dakota
Great job👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I’m sure Andrew is so proud of you! You share so much yet you are real and humble such an inspiration to young families. I LOVED this being just you, I’m glad to hear your feeling stronger you radiate confidence I’m sure you have struggles like everyone but you’re so good at talking about things and being transparent.🥰
My oldest son walked at 8 months. No pushing. Don’t worry about what people think or say! You as their parent know what’s best for them. That’s why God gave you these specific children.
mama of a new kindergartener and I'm still freaking out that my baby girl is in school. we had a great private pres school and this is a huge adjustment and support. I grew up in the best schools in NJ/NY area and this is very different school system. I am trying not to compare.
Preschool teacher here! Observe the students - do they seem happy there? Are other parents happy with their children there? Do teachers get down on children’s levels to talk to them? How does the school view play based learning in Kindergarten? Is there a safe place where students (whether yours or someone else’s) can go when they have big emotions? This is to keep the child who’s experiencing big emotions safe, the other students in the classroom safe. Do the teachers seem supported.
If you have a Hero’s Academy, or Acton Academy near you, please research it. My four grands go to Hero’s Academy in Meridian, ID and are thriving! They do not call them teachers, they are called guides. They don’t answer the kids’ questions, they ask the kids things to get them to think on their own. They collaborate on real-world projects, learn so much from each other, it’s so different than public school but so great! Good luck.
Do you have a workout plan or person you follow or recommend for postpartum? I had my 3rd baby in January and it's been rough trying to feel like myself and I know there are imbalances that I'm trying to get addressed but I want to feel stronger again.
I have 4 kids, and they all went to public school. The schools were ok, but not great. The difference was, my kids took lots of AP classes and dual enrollment in high school. They all graduated in the top 4 with 4. 6 GPA. A few were higher. They all go to a private college and doing well.
Watch how the morning starts. If the children go run in the room and it is chaos with kids running all over the room...run. If the children go in and sit down at there spot and start working on coloring a picture or have a puzzle and the class starts with organization the teachers will have a lot more control over their class. If the kids are running around it is so much harder for the teacher to have any organization of the class and may decide a active boy is the "troubled one" and not have any structure. I know kids need to be kids but when you have maybe 20 kids in a class it is better for a teacher to be structured while being loving and caring when needed. Just advise from a mom of an ADHD child that is very Intelligent and gets bored with attention on the teacher structure helped so much.
St. Joseph in Nashville TN it’s a smaller school. There’s many that are great private schools. St. Edward’s also when in High school Father Ryan High school is great!! I love watching videos of your family.
If you spend all the money on a school, what about the rest of it. The extra curricular activities can break the bank as well. Skating, dance, gymnastics, theatre and on and on. I’d want to make sure I could still give them that.
Imagine you have a 4 baby will you be happy or that will be start for you both can be more difficult emotionnally ,physically economically because i ear for school not easy too ?
Since they starter walking so early, their spatial awarness Will be worse. So train them on that when They are older. Its that way for all of us that didnt crawl much, they brain is then underdeveloped om spatial awarness.
Hate comments are crazy to me. They are your children and the fact that people want to negatively comment is ridiculous. It’s a mind your business moment. Dont like it scroll on, don’t watch, whatever. I guess I just don’t understand what being negative to someone you don’t know adds to the commenter’s life.

I enjoyed this solo one. Please do again. You were great!!!
Listening here while my husband not here cuz of work. Love this!
Yep! We had/have 3 kids in private schools , shopping for private school is wild , especially their wait list which sometimes goes for 2-3 years !

Private school doesn’t always mean or equal your kids will be better than those who didn’t attend
This was awesome.!
Look into Montessori schools I really liked it for my child.
Yes!
But I think they want a very religious one, perhaps run by Church etc.
Anything that is free of leftist lunacy and brainwashing
Religious school run by church sounds very bad ; especially with hearing about abuse stories in churches
Stories Omartian's book The Power of a Praying Wife is such an amazing book!!!! I have read it several times! ❤
My youngest cousins went to school in Nashville. They went to Harding and Lipscomb I believe and both were amazing

tsp. For teaspoon and Tbs. For Tablespoon. Over the years it has changed a few times. Or at one time t. And T
Love that lamp can I get the deets please?
Universal is tsp= teaspoon
T= Tablespoon. This is what I was taught many years ago.
Do you ever go live on tik tok ??
Shawn I am from Reno/Lake Tahoe, Nevada and you are a little right about schools where you and I from.
You are live! Hi there!
You are correct. Universal measuring symbols
I think 2-3 is ALWAYS really rough. After that I understand it’s easy. I had 3 boys.
I’m an Aussie and I know that language lol…little t Is teaspoon etc

They are rich, they can afford both easily.
Omg! Homeschool!
not universally known - good to know
Imagine you have a 4 baby will you be happy or that will be start for you both can be more difficult emotionnally ,physically economically because i ear for school not easy too ?
Find out their discipline policy. Also find out philosophy on play in kindergarten.
What do those 20 people do? Like is it for a business you have?
Is that the house you bought from Stephen Miller? I watch his RUclips.
I got you on t and T.
Our babies walked at 9 months. Not unusual at all.
Since they starter walking so early, their spatial awarness Will be worse. So train them on that when They are older.
Its that way for all of us that didnt crawl much, they brain is then underdeveloped om spatial awarness.
Homeschooling
Little t is for the older generation lol but yeah my mom taught me that

Agreed! Don’t like it, move on.
Someone called her spoiled…??? She’s worked her butt off for everything she has! So that makes no sense to me. 😂.
I am Christian Mom living over here in Nice france but i am german!
I feel i need to tell you halloween is not a celebration for a Christian!
You are correct. I just don't understand how a Christian thinks it is Godly. It's demonic. Light and darkness do not mix
Listening to spoiled millennial talk about how hard it is raising 3 kids WITH tons of help and a world of affluence is hilarious 😂....
Shut it !
